Natural Ways to Improve Sleep Struggling with your sleep schedule? Anyone who hasn’t been sleeping well knows that we’re not ourselves without a good night’s sleep. Did you know…? Even moderately sleep-deprived individuals are 50% slower to respond than someone who is under the influence of alcohol*. 30% of adult Americans suffer from insomnia. 37.9% of people have reported falling asleep unintentionally on the job in the last 30 days*. It’s time to stop the madness! Fortunately, there are several ways to encourage a solid night’s sleep without depending on over-the-counter or prescription drugs. Skip the medication and opt for one of these natural ways to improve sleep: - Read a book (Quiet the mental chatter and dive into a good book to help slow down your brain and prepare for a solid sleep) -unplug (Put down your phone, close your laptop, and turn off your TV at least an hour before jumping into bed) -Turn off the lights (switching off the lights will put you in the right headspace and alert your body that it's time for bed) -Meditate -Stick to a schedule (Aim to go sleep around the same time every night) -Make great food decisions (Avoid foods that are high in sugar and caffeine) -Get a massage (Massage helps you relax, relieves aches and pains, and can stimulate sleep hormones) |
